With so many stores in the city, I'm not sure how to narrow down where to go. For my dress, I'm looking for lace and backless with a budget of $3k and we haven't decided on style for my bridesmaids besides floor length in navy blue and under $300. Are there any stores that cater more to that style and price range? Did anyone have any great experiences at a store? 

Thanks!

    The Lovely Bride, the Wedding Atelier and Designer Loft all have a lot of styles under $3k and the service is generally good.  If you want really budget, you could try RK Bridal (more of a warehouse style store).  Places with most dresses higher than that price (i.e. don't bother going: Saks bridal salon, Amsale, Mark Ingram, Gabriella, Bridal Reflections).  There's also Kleinfeld's.  Though the majority of their dresses are above $3k, because they have such a large selection, they will have a decent number of styles under $3k for you to try on.  The service there isn't as personalized though, it's more like a cattle call.

    BM dresses under $300 gives you a lot of options.  I went to Bella Bridesmaids in midtown where we got Amsale dresses.  One of the styles my sister chose was above $300 but they were having a trunk show so we got 15% off.  They have many styles by nice designers.  If you want more budget, you can try RK Bridal or Here Comes the Bridesmaid.

    ETA: for BM dresses, also check out j.crew, nordstrom, and bloomingdale's websites--some of the floor length dresses may be above $300 but they frequently have coupons/sales.
